Biggest Winner Competition

This year I have decided to work on being healthier and getting into shape. BYU-Idaho has this awesome program called the Biggest Winner. It is pretty much the same thing as the Biggest Loser, but not as intense and the trainers do not yell in our faces. Yesterday was my first workout of this program. Even though it was difficult and  tiring, I am ready for my workout again today. My team consists of a personal trainer, a wellness coach, an assistant, and 9 contestants. I am extremely excited for this opportunity and for the chance to change my life for the better. My short term goal for this semester is to lose 20 pounds and my long term goal is to lose 50 pounds. I can't wait to see a difference not only in my appearance, but also in my attitude. I plan on posting on here everyday what I have done at my workout, to hopefully inspire others the same way that I have been inspired to get off the coach, and treat my body better! I will also be using my blog as part of my journal so that I can remember this experience forever.
